At FantasyDrafthelp.com, we pride ourselves on devising clever and creative ways to enjoy sports with your friends in a competitive manner – even highly non-traditional fantasy sports. Along those lines, we are pleased to bring you, for the second time, our presentation of the fantasy Winter Olympic draft board and suggested league guidelines.

The structure of the game emerges from the fact that there are twice as many medals awarded for outdoor competition as there are for the indoor events. As such, we have divided every country into “indoor” and “outdoor” units. We recommend that owners utilize a five-round standard serpentine draft, with each one selecting two indoor squads, two outdoor ones and one additional “flex” unit of their choice.

To even out the scoring because of the aforementioned reality of twice as many outdoor medals being awarded, points are awarded on the following basis:

^ Indoor gold medal: 12 points
^ Indoor silver medal: 8 points
^ Indoor bronze medal: 4 points
^ Outdoor gold medal: 6 points
^ Outdoor silver medal: 4 points
^ Outdoor bronze medal: 2 points

Here is our draft board for the indoor and outdoor squads.
